Davis Microbiology Grads

MGG students off strike as of late Dec. with settled UC-UAW contracts. With gratitude and solidarity, thank you for everyone's collective efforts that made this progress possible! We recognize there is more progress to be made, but wishing all a Happy New Year 2023 ! 🥳🎉🎇

MGG students continue ***ON STRIKE*** until further notice. We love our work, but must stand for a fair contract with livable wages, true accessibility & transportation benefits among other things at UC. Join us at the picket line in solidarity! fairucnow.org/strikefaq/ 🙌🪧🫡

We did a DEI survey last summer in @MGGucdavis - 42% of my grad group would struggle or be unable to cover basic needs if faced with a $1000 emergency expense. The contract we need has been a long time coming @UofCalifornia

Let us take time to honor civil rights activist Martin Luther King Jr. this Monday and remember his 1963 speech "I Have a Dream." May we each be empowered with the same desire for justice in our communities and never forget those who came before us! americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkih…
